Stephen is an [older] middle aged man who suddenly found himself a disabled veteran in 2009. After a very difficult transition into a new life from a successful Engineering career he took over managing the family investments in order to try and have a meaningful contribution to the household, and philanthropic efforts. A previously published author, in an effort to share some of what he learned financially he finished his first book in 2018 with a couple of unrelated books underway for future publishing. Why self-publish, "because I hate rejection."
